  • The Mystery of the Isdal Woman
    Mar 26 2026

    In this episode of Compact Mysteries, we explore one of Europe's most haunting unsolved cases: the mystery of the Isdal Woman. Found dead in a remote valley near Bergen, Norway, in November 1970, she left behind burned belongings, coded notes, multiple false identities, and a trail of hotel stays that only made the puzzle stranger. Was she a spy, a fugitive, or simply a woman whose life has been lost behind layers of secrecy? This is a cold case where every answer seems to create two new questions, which is frankly very rude of the evidence.

  • The Mystery of the London Monster
    Mar 12 2026

    In this episode of Compact Mysteries, we explore one of the strangest crime waves in London's history. During the late 1780s, women across the city reported terrifying encounters with a mysterious attacker who slashed clothing and vanished into the night. Newspapers soon gave the unknown figure a chilling name: the London Monster. When a man named Rhynwick Williams was eventually arrested and convicted, many believed the mystery was solved. But even at the time, doubts remained. Was Williams truly the infamous attacker, or had a frightened city simply found someone to blame? Join us as we investigate the strange case of the London Monster.
